Chapter 17 Peach Blossoms
If it were ordinary, if someone like Yunzhou proposed marriage, they would definitely not be embarrassed, but they had a master who did not dare to provoke.
The old man of the Wan family was helpless, so he knelt on the ground to let Yun Zhou leave, he walked up to Yun Zhou and said: "Yun Gongzi, we have already taken this Zhang family, and we must not allow the second family again, otherwise I will tell my daughter how to behave, besides, we can't afford to provoke this Zhang family, she is the maiden cousin of the Qing princess, and this family has to look at the face of the Qing king." ”
"What about Xiaoyou, how does she choose, after all, it is her life's event, if she doesn't want to, I'll leave immediately. "Yunzhou is also dead, and he has to succeed in proposing his marriage.
After Xiaoyou heard Yunzhou's words, he wanted to go out, but he was dragged and wanted to speak, but he was covered as soon as he opened his mouth, as if he was drowning in the water, and he was uncomfortable.
"She doesn't want to marry you. The master of the Zhang family broke into the ten thousand homes with a group of small servants, "The Zhang Wan family has already made a marriage, what's the matter with your sideways." ”
"It's just the two of you who are adults, and Xiaoyou is a million people who don't want to marry. Yunzhou did not hide his thoughts.
"Since ancient times, marriage events have been the words of the matchmaker at the behest of the parents, as long as the father and mother die early, they will get engaged to each other, which parents don't care about their children?"
This sentence happened to poke the thorn in Yun Zhou's heart, he had no father and no mother, so he proposed his own marriage, and because his parents died early, the dowry was also exchanged for his life a little bit.
Yun Zhou was young and vigorous, so he must not have heard these words, and suddenly a wave of anger surged up in his chest: "Such a nervous girl from the Wanjia family, I'm afraid that if it is not your son, there is some hidden disease, and no one wants to marry." I thought that I was afraid that I was not a short-lived ghost, and I wanted to ask a good girl to marry a widow. ”
As soon as he heard this, the old man of the Zhang family suddenly became angry, he pointed to Yunzhou and looked at the old man of the Wan family and said: "This kid speaks, Master Wan, he has provoked me in this matter, if you don't care, it is my business with him, the marriage between our two families still counts, if you are in charge, the matter of our two families, the marriage will be withdrawn, and the water will not violate the river from now on." ”
Master Wan hurriedly waved his hand: "The words are what he said, naturally it is his business, our family still wants to be quiet and quiet, if you go out to settle the account, when Xiaoyou marries, Zhang Wan's two families will tie the knot, and the two families can be a family feud." ”
"Okay, I'll give you a convenience for Wanjia today, and someone will take him away for me. "The little guy brought by the old man of the Zhang family is not an ordinary little guy, many people are good at martial arts.
Although Yunzhou's martial arts are strong, the king of Qing has explained that when he is not on a mission, he is not allowed to wear a sword, and he must not hurt ordinary people, and this Zhang family and the king of Qing still have cousins, so naturally they dare not use their rough hands.
I can only let it be carried out.
After Yunzhou went out, Xiaoyou was able to release it, and she couldn't hold back her tears with red eyes: "You bullied her for having no parents, and you bullied him." ”
Master Wan sighed helplessly: "Xiaoyou, he's just an attendant, so don't forget it." ”
"No, I don't have to marry him in this life. Before the tears could fall out completely, Xiao You wiped them away.
"What's wrong with this eldest son of the Zhang family, he is handsome and decent, he is kind and considerate, why do you have to be that scoundrel. Wan Mu also didn't understand it very much.
But no matter how good a person is, if he doesn't like it, it will be like a cool summer breeze rushing past him, but he can't keep it, because we all know that it doesn't belong to us, as long as we know that he is good, we don't have to catch him.
Master Wan thought about it, raised his hand and slapped it on the table and shouted: "You are willing to marry this matter, and if you don't want to marry, you have to marry, so you can't do nonsense." ”
"I don't have more than one daughter in Wanjia, why is it me. ”
Master Wan ignored her and looked at Wan Mu: "Look at her and don't allow her to go out." ”
Yunzhou's proposal was delayed like this.
Wan Xiaoyou was locked up at home and couldn't go out, so he could only find out the news by his maidservant.
First inquired, the people of the Zhang family were all knocked down by Yunzhou, Wan Xiaoyou clapped his hands happily, and the next day it was reported that Yunzhou was taken back by the Qing King and locked up.
After all, they are cousins, no matter how far away they are, they are relatives, and if they hit the people of the Zhang family, that is, they slapped the face of King Qing, so Yunzhou naturally would not have such a good time.
On the third day, no one in the Qing Palace's palace dared to mention Yunzhou's name.
Since then, there has been no news of Yunzhou.
Wan Xiaoyou sat alone in the room, sitting all day, his eyes lost their brilliance, and he had no aura of the past.
About ten days later, the maidservant girl found out the news of Yunzhou again, but she didn't dare to tell Wan Xiaoyou about this news.
She saw Yun Zhou, wearing a loose gown, a big circle than before, his body used to be straight and straight, but it was a little rickety, his face and hands were full of wounds, as if he had been scratched by his nails and pinched, his eyes were cloudy, his face was pale, and he was escorted all the way to Zhang's house.
Although Wan Xiaoyou has lost his spirit, he is a living person after all, and seeing that his maid has been talking all day long, he can't help but guess something: "Is there any news of Yunzhou?"
The maid didn't lie, so she nodded, but didn't tell her everything, but said, "I saw that he was sent to Zhang's house." ”
When Wan Xiaoyou heard this, he immediately stood up: "If I was locked up by King Qing, I must have been punished, and I was sent to Zhang's house again, and I didn't let anyone beat and humiliate me, no, I have to go and get people back." ”
"Miss, you can't go out. The maid dragged her to death, although she was looking towards Wan Xiaoyou, but after all, it was the old lady of the Wan family who was in charge, and she naturally did not dare to disobey the order.
Wan Xiaoyou was determined to go out, but the maid couldn't stop her and shouted, leading Wan Mu over.
Seeing this, Wan Mu slapped Wan Xiaoyou's face ruthlessly, hating iron and scolding: "I don't know shame." ”
Wan Xiaoyou was stunned, it was the first time she had been beaten when she was so big.
"Shut her up in her room and not let her out. Wan Mu gave an order, and Wan Xiaoyou was locked in the room again.
Until dawn, Wan Xiaoyou didn't sleep for a while, and kept his eyes open until dawn.
"Miss. The maidservant poured a glass of water.
"How's Yunzhou?" is she okay?" Wan Xiao slowly turned his head to look at her.
"Miss, don't ask me, I don't want to say any more. ”
"You say, I can accept any news, how can the Zhang family beat and scold him and humiliate him?"
"He was beaten to death, tied hand and foot and thrown at Zhang's house, and kicked to death. ”
She thought that Wan Xiaoyou would cry, but she never thought that she would laugh: "It's good to die, it's good to die." She applauded.
The maidservant looked dazed.
Wan Xiaoyou stood up and looked out the window: "The peach blossoms are blooming, it's really good weather." ”
Her reaction was a bit unusual, but it wasn't a good thing that she was able to stay unaffected.
"Miss, you haven't slept all night, why don't you have a good rest first. ”
"No, time flies, I can't afford to take out my favorite dress and put on my makeup. ”
Wan Xiaoyou is the usual Wan Xiaoyou again.
She came to her parents and no longer mentioned the refusal to marry, and she listened quietly to their nagging, and she was a good daughter again, the same as before.
Wanjia's parents smiled with relief.
Yunzhou's death, what a good thing, they thought.
That night, the moon was very bright, although it was not as good as the Mid-Autumn Festival, but it was also exceptionally beautiful, and the peach blossom tree in the yard was blooming brilliantly, and when it was at its most brilliant, it was also the time to fall.
Pink petals slowly fall from the sky, and peach-colored figures slowly spin and land under the trees.
The falling pink petals were dyed red in an instant, the branches were dyed red, the peach blossoms became bewitching, and one by one they were washed up into the sky, and then fell to the ground, on the girl's face, on her hands, and on her body.
When Yunzhou woke up from the barren land, his whole body hurt as if he had fallen apart, he wanted to escape from this place, he didn't want to see the Qing King anymore, he wanted to take Xiaoyou away, even if tens of millions of people blocked him, he had to tear a way out of the tens of millions of people.
He raised his steps with difficulty and walked towards Wanjia.
I saw that the peach blossoms were in full bloom on the street, full of peach color, and white like a long dragon.
The sound of crying came into his ears, and he recognized Wan Jia's parents at a glance, Yun Zhou didn't know what was going on, and he didn't dare to rush forward, he dragged his clothes to cover his face, and looked at the team, but he didn't see Wan Xiaoyou's figure.
"What a young girl, why can't you think about it like that. ”
"Yes, staying in the green mountains without worrying about no firewood, how is it worth it to die for a man. ”
Yun Zhou listened to the gossip of the people around him, and guessed that the person they sent might be Xiaoyou, but he couldn't believe it, he just wanted to go up and ask what was going on, but when he saw King Qing coming on horseback, Yun Zhou immediately shrank his neck and hid.
The king of Qing said the words of condolence, but Yun Zhou didn't listen too clearly, only vaguely listened to the "Xiaoyou girl" Yun Zhou's feet were no longer steady.
He walked around in a trance, not knowing where to go, not knowing what to do, dragging his broken body, and unconsciously walked to the edge of the cliff of the burning mountain.
It was very cold on the mountain, and the cold wind blew him a little sober, and he looked down the cliff, only to see white clouds.
Maybe it's good to fall asleep on the clouds.
He lifted his feet and hung in the air, waiting for a cloud to float at his feet, as if playing a game, until the cloud floated at his feet and he stepped on it.
Yunzhou is to step on the cloud boat and go to the other side.
